Divine Shield
"Ignores all damage once, after which the Divine Shield is destroyed."
If used by your opponent, Blast, Return Fire, Thorns, Magic Reflect, Corrosive Ward and Backfire can all count as the first attack
Remarkable Interactions
- All retaliatory abilities and Modifiers will remove Divine Shield (Blast, Return fire, Thorns, Magic Reflect, Corrosive Ward, and Backfire).
- Divine shield will be re-applied when a unit with the Divine Shield ability is resurrected.
- If Lookout reduces damage to 0 on an adjacent unit with Divine Shield, Divine Shield remains active as no damage would have been taken.
Notable Modifiers
- Born Again - All units receive the Rebirth ability allowing them to self Resurrect once. Divine Shield is reapplied upon resurrection.
- Explosive Weaponry - Adjacent Units to the target will have divine shield removed by the blast impact.
Notable Abilities
While Divine Shield protects against the first direct damage taken, it does not protect against negative status effects.
- Poison - Units can still be poisoned even if the attack strikes Divine Shield first.
- Shatter - Armor can be shattered through Divine Shield.
- Affliction - Divine Shield does not protect against Affliction.
- Dispel - If the first attack upon a unit with Divine Shield is combined with Dispel, Divine Shield is removed by the attack itself, not Dispel.
